Acapulco

Acapulco, officially the Mexican Open, is an ATP Tour 500 event staged on outdoor hard courts in the sun-kissed beach city of Acapulco, Mexico. It combines high-level tennis with a festival atmosphere, turning a week of matches into a seaside celebration. As an ATP 500 stop on the North American hard-court swing, it attracts many of the tour’s elite players who hunt valuable ranking points, warm-weather form, and fearless title runs before the European clay season. The tournament features a compact singles draw and a doubles field, played over best-of-three sets, with a strong support cast from local fans and international spectators. The venue sits along the Pacific coast, with palm trees, ocean breezes, and lively spectator zones that make match days feel like a party. Historically, Acapulco has been a key stop since the 1990s, evolving into a hard-court centerpiece of the Latin American winter circuit and a proving ground for players who flourish in fast courts. Fans return yearly for fast serves, dramatic comebacks, and the chance to see tennis in a beach-city festival setting.
